Setup Platform Sync

Thank you for choosing Platform Sync! Please follow the below instructions to set up your service:

  1. Go to https://www.platformsync.io/my-account/edit-account/ and scroll down until you see “Platform Sync Bot Details”.
  2. Fill in all the necessary fields. If you do not know how to get Discord IDs, you can follow this guide to enable on your client. Please refer to the table below for an explanation of what each one is.
  3. Invite the bot to your discord server using the invite link in the main menu.
  4. Once the bot is in your server, confirm that the permissions are correct. The bot should have:
    1. Manage Roles
    2. Send Messages
    3. Manage Messages
    4. The bot also needs to be higher in the roles list than both your Verified role and your Nitro role. Failure to do this will mean it will not be able give users those roles.
  5. In a chat channel, the bot has access to type /auth. This will generate your API key, which will be DM’ed to you.
  6. If you already have Nitro Boosters in your discord, enter the command /loadnitro to sync your current nitro users with Platform Sync.
  7. You will need to set up a discord chat channel that non-verified users can see. This is where you will show your users how to link their Discord accounts with their Steam accounts. Once you have set this channel up, use the /instructions command in this channel to display the embed.
  8. Install the Platform Sync oxide plugin on your server and fill in the predefined fields in the config file. The plugin can be downloaded from https://www.platformsync.io/my-account/downloads/

That’s it, and you’re done! If at any point you get stuck, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team on discord at https://discord.gg/7PtDYGrU74
